PetsWelcome
There are six official dog parks in this city. All of the dog parks are open daily, and open thirty minutes prior to sunrise and close thirty minutes after sunset. This is a good place to visit in Florida, as it isn’t as touristy as places like Miami or the Keys.
Rules: These are unsupervised parks, and you must take your dogs there at your own risk. All dogs must be vaccinated, and display current licenses. Puppies must be at least four months old. Children under ten have to be supervised closely by adults. You are not allowed to bring food or treats for pets or for humans to these parks. Though the parks are off-leash, you are required to have a leash in your hands. Aggressive dogs and female dogs in heat may not go to the parks. You are only allowed to bring two dogs at once.

These articles are great. Finally I can take my dog with me and enjoy without worries. Thank you so much.
Our 1year old Catahoula absolutely loved the Kenwood Dog Park. They have made many improvements to it and we always meet friendly dogs and owners there! Thanks for providing our dog, Colton, with a wonderful area to play and make new friends!
